GRAVE:

Jonathan S Porter
Birth:  Mar., 1822
Berkshire County
Massachusetts, USA
Death:  Jan. 19, 1918
Ellenville
Ulster County
New York, USA

The death of Jonathan S. Porter at the home of his son, Albert V. Porter, on Canal street, Ellenville, Saturday morning at 8 o'clock, removes a very old citizen from the town, for had he lived until March he would have reach 96 years. Mr. Porter was born in the Berkshires in Massachusetts and came to reside in Ellenville when a young man and was employed at the old lead mine which was at that time one of the village's chief industries. On April 19, 1846, he was united in marriage with Sarah Van Dover, daughter of Albert Van Dover and Eliza Carpenter, his wife. The Rev. S. B. Ayres, of the Reformed Church, performed the ceremony. To this union were born ten children, two girls and eight sons, four of whom survive: Saul T., of Syracuse, Albert, John and Richard of Ellenville. Mr. and Mrs. Porter were an ideal devoted couple and were spared to each other until death claimed the devoted wife on April 29, 1914. At the time of her death and since Mr. Porter has resided with his son and family, who have been devoted in the care of this venerable father – a long life ended. Up until a year or two deceased was able to go out upon the street and exchange friendly greetings with friends. He was active in the early history of the village and was a man of bright intellect, well read in history not confined alone to state but national affairs, a man devoted to home and family, a kind neighbor and a good friend, and has been kept in mind by many to whom he and his good wife were so kind in sickness and sorrow, cheering many aching hearts. He lived a good live and has gone to meet its reward. The funeral was held from the son's home Monday afternoon. The four sons were present at the services, also the devoted granddaughter, Miss Sadie E. Porter, of Brooklyn, was called home. The service was conducted by Rev. Joseph E. Appley, of the M. E. Church and interment made in the family plot in the Ellenville Cemetery.

Mr. Porter was a native of New Bedford, Mass., and when a child of eight years removed with his parents to Lumberland, Pa., where he grew to manhood, his ancestors owning at one time a large tract of land where the city of Kingston, Pa., now stands.

At the age of eighteen he came to Ellenville, and for quite a term of years followed the occupation of a tanner, residing the remainder of his long life in this village. When a young man he was married to Sarah Van Dover of this place who died four years ago, after a long and happy married life of 69 years.

They reared a family of ten children, four of whom survive: Albert V., John and Richard of Ellenville, and Saul Porter, of Syracuse.

Mr. Porter was the oldest member of the Methodist Episcopal Church and a man who always had a kind word for every one with whom he came in contact, making many friends during his long life.

The funeral was held Monday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock, from the home of the son, Albert V. Porter. Rev. J. E. Appley of the M. E. Church conducted the services. Interment in the Ellenville cemetery at the convenience of the family.

4200. Samuel B. Carpenter

Is this the same Samuel as RIN 91994? NO!  DIfferent parents. The Samuel Carpenter-47395 is confused with this Samuel also.  He also has different parents.

NAME: I can not find where his middle name is Bigelow. I found 1 census (1830) where the middle initial is E.
Per the Van Hoosear Genealogy, Fourth Generation, page 39, he married Antoinette Maria Jelliff in 1824 at Thunder Hill, Sullivan, NY.  His name is just Samuel Carpenter, son of Benjamin, born at Milton, NY March 10, 1803.  Death record has Samuel B. Carpenter.

CHILDREN:  Per the Van Hoosear Genealogy, (See wife's notes) 7 children born in NY before move to Nauvoo, IL in May of 1839 arriving about the middle of June. By July they moved to Olive Green, about 2 miles from Navooo where he bought a 100 acre farm.  He resided there until 1846 where 3 more children (Abigail, Nancy and Benjamin) were born. The eight child died in the fall of 1844 or maybe at Council Bluffs about 1847/1848.  Nancy the tenth child died as an infant either in 1845 or 1846.   After his wife died, 7 children remained. (?)  In the spring of 1846 he sold his farm and moved west toward Fort Madison toward Council Bluffs.  In September of 1846 he married his second wife, Clarissa Tuttle (possibly a married name) and they started westward.  About 40 miles west of Council Bluff he died on or near the bank of the Missouri river and was buried.

NOTE:  It is not known if his body was later transfered to the Mormon Pioneer Cemetery or it the plaque represents him only in spirit.  See DEATH: below.

Rhoda, Julia A, Elizabeth and Antoinette decided to turn back.  The story is listed on page 40 of the Van Hoosear genealogy book.   Later, Rhoda Ann (later she married a Mance) left Council Bluffs and went to Missouri to retrieve Lydia and arrived back in Council Bluffs in May of 1847.  Then she went and found her brother Benjamin "Bennie" who was living with Jerome Benson and his family.   While in Council Bluffs the daughters wrote to their grandmother Misner requesting help to return to New York.  Their Uncle Benjamin Carpenter went to Council Bluffs and returned them home to New York.

CHILD: Calvin not listed as a child - unknown relationship if any.

4217. Elias Carpenter

Number 2352 in the Carpenter Memorial.  Page 289
His family is on page 475 (#713).
Elias enlisted in the Revolutionary army from Stratford, VT in Jan 1781, in
Captain Well's Company, Col. Samuel B. Webbs' regiment of CT.  He served until
4 Jan 1784 and received a pension from 9 April 1818.  He was the first man to
enter Yorktown at the surrender of Cornwallis.  He was a most loyal American
until his death, telling with great earnestness reminiscences of the war.
Although he was a pious man and never profane, he invaribly spoke of the
"tories" as "Damned Tories" so much that one of his grandchildren supposed that
"damnedtories" was one word.
The following obituary notice is copied from an old newspaper:
"Died in Stratford, Feb. 16, 1851, Mr. Elias Carpenter, one of the few
surviving Revolutionary Soldiers, aged 90.  Mr. Carpenter enlisted in the
service of his country under Washington, when 17 years old, and was at the
evacuation of NY and the taking of Lord Cornwallis which decided the
independence of our coountry.  He was a member of the Methodist Episcopal
church."
